Research activities : More than 60 research papers in biochemistry Clinical
Chemistry molecular biology published in scientific national and international
periodicals and the scope of research involved in :
a) lipid metabolism (Phospholipids , triacylglycerols and steroids) in human beings
and in experimental animals affected by some diseases e.g. bilharsiasis, diabetes
mellitus , atherosclerosis ,cancer and oxidative stress.
b) Therapeutic effects of some drugs on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in
some tissues as retina and adipose tissue and in some organs as kidney , liver , and
aorta in some diseases on molecular level.
c) The effect of free radicals formation on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism and
on enzymes in many tissues and organs of experimental animals diseased with
diabetes mellitus , and those under the effects of oxidative stress , radiation or in
flammtion and changes of the biochemical levels and pattern from diseased states
towards normal pattern under the effect of antioxidants eg, vitamins C, E , Bcarotene , selenium , N - acetyl cysteine , taurine , quercetin and propalis.
d) deleterious effects of food additives on metabalism of some organs as liver,
kidney and brain as well as the toxic effects of some fungeal metabolites as
aflatoxin on liver metabalism in expermental animals and alleviate such toxic
4
effects by application of some natural antioxidants (Vitamin E , Se. , and
coenzymeQ)
e) Molecular characterization of phenyl ketonuria mutation patterns in egyptian
patients.
f) The role of ozone in improving the biochemical changes associated with ageing
in the brain of aged rats.
g)Molecular biochemical study of certain DNA repair mechanisms and their
relation to cancer
